Last Saturday was a very, very, VERY cold day in Stillwater. I think it was in the 20's with the windchill factor when we arrived at the Chapman house, and silly me didn't even bring a coat. I don't know what I was thinking, but it was a bad idea! We photographed outside by the Chapman's 1800's barn and by the BelAir car that has been passed down for 5 generations before going into the warm kitchen and making ginger bread houses!

This weekend my friend, Davina Fear, flew in for a fun visit and she wanted to photograph a few kids with me. Our first shoot was with a fun, energetic 5 year old named Jayce! Here are my favorites...

Gretchen's mom hired me for a mini session to photograph her for her one year birthday. She was the happiest baby I've ever photographed

I met the Hargrove's at their house last Wednesday and immediately fell in love with their kids. Ayden, Ryan, Greer and Gale are the funnest kids around and they brought all of their favorite things to the family shoot in the pretty country field's around Stillwater.

Wow, what a lovely family, and great photos! The lighting was really beautiful. I really like how their outfits were nicely coordinated, but not matchy matchy.
